I can't wait until the obesity thing get to the proportions in the rest of the world that it is in America, because its happening, and the fat americans joke is getting old. PLENTYYYYY of fat people overseas already.
The funny thing is, that there REALLY IS a especially fat dummy for crash tests. In fact it's a rather new fat kid dummy (fat 6yr old HIII) for child restrain system tests.
It's not that making fun of America can't be funny, because it can, but this joke has been played over and over again so many times that it's just really stale.
I got another one for you people telling Americans to stop crying over "LULZ! IT'S FUNNY CUZ ITS TROO" jokes:
"Do unto others as you would have them do unto you."
I personally don't delight in preying on other nationalities over exaggerated or outright false stereotypes. I dislike being characterized as obese just because I'm American, and being laughed at and told "it's true" despite the fact I am not obese.
Hey, I'm one of those stupid yanks, so I MUST be as fat as a blimp!
Someone said they can't wait for obesity rates to catch up in the rest of the world, but here's the thing: It's already happening.
Mexico, Canada, and the United Kingdom all have obesity rates of over 20%, not far off from the United States' obesity rate.
Haha, I'm French too, and those are some funny jokes! The soap one is the only one I've heard thou LOL. And ya, the fat jokes? OLD AS CRAP! Make new jokes about something else, like stuff about all the Druggies in America :D We has plenty of them around here!
PLENTYYYYY of fat people overseas already.
you know whats even funnier?
The rest of the world starving to death while we sit here fat and happy!
hahahaha
but seriously
America bashing cartoons suck.
I really do love your site by the way. I just dont like people sniping at my country. Unless its really funny. This however was just lame.
The Mental Floss stuff is gold and i like the Cellar stuff on fridays so i guess two outta 3 aint bad.
You people make fun of other countries all the damn time, France comes to mind easily. If you can't take it, don't dish it out.
Seriously, for you humourless yanks, "When a person can no longer laugh at himself, it is time for others to laugh at him."
Where does a tourist in France hide his money?
- Under the soap
...
What do you call a resident of Paris?
- A Parisite
....
Why are all the boulevards in Paris tree-lined?
- So the German army can march in the shade
......
See, it's not hard to laugh about jokes about your country! Being French, I do it all the time. Lighten up people.
